But since 45 is 25% or less than the base Or, I have i--4 = i 76 % or J of the base =45. 45-r-J = 60, Ans, Therefore, I divide the difference, 45, by 1--the rate,.75 or f, and obtain the base, 60, Ans. Formula.--Base = Difference-4-(1--Rate) (g). Rule.--Divide the difference by 1 minus the rate. EXERCISE LXVII. What number: 3. Increased by 25% of itself is equal to 90? 4.
